July 13, 201115 yr It occurs after you teleport multiple times (probably around 40-70 i'm not sure) and when it starts happening rs has a 10 second delay-freeze after every teleport. It's very frustrating when doing a skill like summoning where you are constantly teleporting. I know I am not the only one that this occurs to because some of the other people doing summoning via castle wars & graahk are complaining about it. The only way to fix it is to log out and back in and then you have to re-enter your pin. That time adds up when doing 10k charms. I could see it being some kind of anti-bot measure, it would definitely hinder the bots productivity a lot since they aren't advanced enough to detect it happening and log out and back in. I don't think regular players should have to pay because jagex is incapable of taking care of the bot problem.
July 13, 201115 yr There have been a few threads on the RSOF about this and Jagex said they're working on it. I believe this first started occurring around the Clan Camp update. Makes training summoning such a pain. >.> LIVERPOOL WILL WIN THE PREMIER LEAGUE THIS SEASON. [01:24:34] CJ Hunnicutt: it takes skill to be that [bleep]ing stupid
July 13, 201115 yr Yeah this is quite annoying and it has been happening for awhile. I'll finally go back to summoning once it's fixed, but who knows if that will even be this year.

July 13, 201115 yr :\ I found just switching to a lower-ping world seems to help a tiny bit, but yea, the lag is quite bad sometimes. Adventurer's Log || YouTube || Facebook || Tip.it Times Work || Wanna Join the Editorial Panel?Maxed Out 01 October 2012 PDT
July 13, 201115 yr I noticed the same problem when I did prayer training. I just logged out to lobby and back in and it usually fixed the problem, but yes, I will agree that it is annoying. However I don't really think it's an anti-botting measure.
July 13, 201115 yr I believe starting a duel (being teled into the duel arena) is also considered a teleport. I've noticed that as I stake more and more (not more money, but more fights) I start to lag REALLY BAD getting into the arena. There have been times where I don't even get to see the fight. I click accept on the final screen, get the "Loading, please wait" message, then about 20 seconds later I see a huge stack of damage on everyone in the arena, myself and opponent included, and one of us is dead. It's super annoying because that makes it so I don't get to style switch at all during the fight which leaves me at a disadvantage. Logging out does help, though it resets your PID which isn't fun to do when you've got a good one and don't feel like relogging multiple times and testing it multiple times before your next fight. 99 HP, Attack, Strength, Defence, Summoning, Ranged, Herblore, Prayer, Agility, Magic, Slayer, Fletching, Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining, and Thieving.

July 14, 201115 yr Was doing some runecrafting the other day and noticed it, I don't see it as anything very major, but I've heard that Jagex are working on it. :thumbsup: Probably won't get a fix until after citadels because I think they are to busy with that to worry about anything else.
July 14, 201115 yr yup it sucks, had to get 96-99 sum a few weeks ago. Having to logout after 20-30 teleports was annoying. Thanks Gradeskip93 for my awesome sig!
July 14, 201115 yr Happened to me a while ago. Log in and out periodically when doing something like summoning.
July 14, 201115 yr I'd never notice if this happened to me, because everything on RS lags for me. Part of the reason I play very little these days.

July 15, 201115 yr I've noticed something similar when training dungeoneering: if I do a do a lot of floors in one go, doorlag gets worse and worse.
July 15, 201115 yr Really irritating, especially in the duel arena where every second counts for duel preperation (pots, prayers, summons, etc). I'm not an efficienado.
July 16, 201115 yr Seeing as Jagex knew about this tele-lag problem for a few months now (and still hasn't done anything about it), I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't see a fix for that long. I get the tele lag as well (made getting 96 summon a pain), so I did some research to see if it could've just been my internet (I am on dialup after all, and unable to get anything better in my area), but there are several topics on RSOF about this as well. Some of them dating back a few months. The only JMod posts I saw on the topics I read were rehashed versions of the same thing - update Java, delete the RS cache, etc... none of which work. Hell, I saw at least one JMod post this exact same 'advice' on a topic where on the first page, several different posters offered the exact same solutions, which were shot down as not working. Kinda makes you wonder how much JMods pay attention to what they're posting, doesn't it. Guess we can only hope Jagex gets off their lazy asses and does something about it, but I personally am not getting my hopes up.
July 16, 201115 yr Give it a few years and it might get nerfed. Three months banishment to 9gag is something i would never wish upon anybody, not even my worst enemy.
July 16, 201115 yr I thought this problem was only me... guess not. It is a very annoying problem indeed.
July 16, 201115 yr I thought this problem was only me... guess not. It is a very annoying problem indeed. Same here. I thought it was just my computer/internet connection for a while. I even decided I was going to be done with staking until I got myself a new computer that wouldn't lag so much. Now I'm not so sure about being done with staking..... Though I'm sure a new computer probably would help a bit, my current laptop is awful. 99 HP, Attack, Strength, Defence, Summoning, Ranged, Herblore, Prayer, Agility, Magic, Slayer, Fletching, Fishing, Woodcutting, Mining, and Thieving.

July 16, 201115 yr Author http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uC0pKyLVUs Best way around it until Jagex fix.Too bad us average players can't afford to hire runners, but curious whats the xp/hr doing that.
July 17, 201115 yr I'm pretty sure it started with the update they released the death hats. Duelling the first day you'd start having massive lag after a short while every time you start a new one. I can't remember if it's just with teleporting or just loading a certain area over and over... thought jagex woulda fixed it by now though.
July 18, 201115 yr It's incredibly annoying in the Dual Arena. I hope they fix this soon, or it's going to take even longer than it already is to upgrade my Duellists Cap. :( Check out my blog to read the Adventures of a Big Damn (F2P) Hero. THE place for all free players to connect, hang out and talk about how awesome it is to be F2P. So, Kaida is the real version of every fictional science-badass? That explains a lot, actually...
